I made the dogs gets out of bed early. It's the only way to get in a walk before they melt for the rest of the day. We live in Los Angeles and we don't have AC. I know, it sounds crazy but when you rent with three dogs (two of which are pit bulls) and you want to live in a certain area you have to make sacrifices. To help keep the pups cool we have made pup pops using the sample food bags we get at different events, handfuls of treats, water and Ziploc bags. Mix everything in the bag and freeze.

This weekend, the hubs and I went on a hike (another early morning adventure) in Pacific Palisades. It is a beautiful area. It's on the coast and not near all the action that is what we have come to expect, but we have been talking about renting a new place that actually has a yard. We started looking and found some reasonably priced places though we are still working out all the logistics. Now that I commute to and from the airport, staying in West Hollywood is not as much of a must even though we both love the area and would hate to leave. We have come to realize its time to do whats best for the entire family, a hard lesson taught by the heat wave.

Lastly, on Friday we will be moving the blog over to wordpress. For the next week I will be signing all my comments with :
Don't forget, we are changing our blog this Friday. Please update your reader to follow dogisgodinreverse.com
we don't want to loose any of you so I hope spreading the word often will help!

In other news we are moving the blog to wordpress. We actually have the domain dogisgodinreverse.com. I will post more when it is published Also, we got a facebook fanpage up and running and the hubs decided to use this as the description:
A place to share, learn, and laugh about the ones who secretly call themselves "dog".
I love it :) Its very fitting considering the URL. For those of you on facebook, you can find us by searching Dog is God in Reverse

Way back in March when we went to the rescue fundraiser one of the gifts we received was three containers of cat grass seed. Seeing how I always wanted a balcony garden I figured I could do something for the pup as well. Into a pot it went and it took off.

Mesa is a cow. She lives for eating grass. In honor of her third gotcha day (which is tomorrow) we decided to let her go to town on it.

My google reader says I have zero unread posts! And I didn't click "Mark All as Read" I actually read all of them even though I didn't comment on the majority. (Clarification, this is a good thing. I had over 600 a couple weeks ago so I have read all the new ones and all the old ones).

Also, in Baltimore this week there were two record highs. Both over 100 degrees and crazy humidity.

Finally, there was a 5.9 earthquake at home in LA. The hubs is now on his way back home (he was on the other side of the mountains visiting friends) so we will find out how the pups and the house fared. Here's hoping!

So last week I got to work from home. Last week as in the week of 6.21. I wanted to post more while I was home but I was super busy with work. This week I had to much to catch up on that I was asked to stay an extra day and now get only 1.5 days at home for the weekend. Boo

So anyways, I stayed home because the hubs and I had our second wedding anniversary :) We ended up taking a weekend trip to Vegas and had a great time.

Upon our return I worked from the sofa, or the deck depending on how the weather was. I tried to get the dogs excited for work but all I got was this:

because I was home and I work on the east coast I had a lot of early morning phone calls and the dogs are not morning creatures. I got a lot of evil glares when I pulled myself out of bed at 430am.

In other news, the hubs wants to start baking and selling our own dog treats since we have such a diverse tasting crew. I am all for it, as long as he does the work :)
